RESUMO
Based on results of a prospective study of 200 patients with "mallet finger", the author establishes criteria to divide the injuries into recent and late. In view of the radiologic and anatomic findings as well as the extent of "falla" of the distal phalanx, a classification that allows prognosis and type of most adequate treatment for each case, is proposed.
